Several Guns Stolen, Victim Believes He Knows Who Took 'Em

A burglar took several guns from a Ronda home earlier this week, and deputies are still looking for the person. Glen Blackburn reported the theft Tuesday mid-day. The burglar had taken a small pane of glass out of the front door to gain entry to the house, and once inside had broken the glass on the front of a gun cabinet to get the long guns. Nothing else in the house was disturbed. Blackburn told deputies the names of a man and woman he believes to be responsible, because the man had asked him for money not long ago, and when Blackburn refused, the man spouted off that he knew where the safe was. In addition, neighbors say they saw the man and woman go in and out of the house earlier. Deputies have not released the pair's names, and they are still trying to locate them. The guns, which include several rifles,a shotgun and a couple of BB guns, belong to Blackburn's son Chad, who is serving in the US Army. They are worth about 13-hundred dollars.
